Last night my wife and I were driving by Tasu and saw the sign outside advertising buy one sushi roll, get one free so we thought we would give Tasu a try and pick up a couple of rolls to take home with us.

We live in the Brier Creek area and were really happy that there was a sushi place so close to us. If the sushi was good, we would probably stop in at least every other week.

We went into the bar area and saw another sign on the way in that said they were offering half price appetizers Sunday through Thursday before 6 pm.

Again, this sounded like a great deal so we also put in our order for a couple of appetizers to go.

While we were waiting for our order, we discussed the possibility of reserving Tasu for my wife's birthday next month. We had been looking for a place that could accomodate 40 to 50 people for this event and Tasu seemed like it would be perfect.

While we waited, we heard a group of 3 arguing with the bartender because they had come in for the buy one, get one sushi, but they had split the bill.

Because they had split the bill, the management was charging them full price for all of their sushi rolls and not honoring the buy one, get one deal.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, the bartender we had placed our order with comes to tell us that she cannot honor any of the deals advertised because we had placed our order to go.

We were a bit shocked at first because this made absolutely no sense at all. It was a take out order meaning that no one would have to wait on us or clean up after us and they would still be making money from our purchase.

We protested a bit and were met with "I'm sorry but it's just our policy" after which we left sushiless and angry.

After wasting our time because of a very poorly thought out policy,

I truly suggest you think twice before spending your money with Tasu.

They may advertise a deal or you may have a coupon but they're going to do what they can to make sure you pay full price for their food.

• Pros: Don't know of any
• Cons: Horrible Management/ Service
